Why won't my iPhone connect to my home wi-fi router?

I have an iPhone 4S, and the wi-fi all of a sudden stopped working. I have a Verizon FiOS router that I use at home to access the internet on my iPhone. I am able to enter the password and it says it's connected, but nothing that uses the internet is able to load, and it says it can't load the page because it isn't connected. And now, as I'm typing this, the wi-fi won't even load. When I click on the one I want, it just has that loading circle and never loads. I've done everything to troubleshoot. I've restarted my phone multiple times, turned the wi-fi on and off, and even tried resetting my network settings, but nothing works. I really need this to be fixed because I can't go on the internet without using my data, and I don't want to use it up, so I really need my wi-fi to start working again.

Marv567, I would like to help resolve this issue if you are still having problems. First, we need to determine whether the phone or the FiOS router is causing the issue. Are you able to connect to other wifi networks on your phone? Are you able to connect other wifi devices (computers, etc) to your wifi connection? Resetting the network settings is a great troubleshooting step since it requires you to setup the wifi network again. As JimFitzgerald suggested, make sure to reboot your router as well. Soft reset your phone by pressing the sleep/wake button and home buttons for 10 seconds until the Apple symbol boots up.
If you are still having issues with setting up wifi and the phone is not able to connect to any other wifi spots, you may need to restore/hard reset your iPhone. You will need to make sure your device is backed up as this will erase all data. Attempt to setup as a new device and then try the wifi connection again.

Why won't my iPhone connect to my home wifi?

My iPhone always used to automatically connect to my wifi now it won't even find it and when I type it in manually it won't recognise it what can I do to sort this out. Also I can't do my update without the wifi so how do I sort it?

Hello Trixie29,
After reviewing your post, I have located an article that can help in this situation. It contains a number of troubleshooting steps and helpful advice concerning network issues:
iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398
Occasionally while using your iOS device, you may notice unexpected Wi-Fi behavior:
Difficulty locating or connecting to a network
Unexpected Wi-Fi signal strength or disconnects
Inability to access the Internet
Not automatically connecting to Wi-Fi when expected
Follow these steps to troubleshoot the above issues:
Be sure you're in range of your Wi-Fi router (access point).
Tap Settings > Wi-Fi and turn Wi-Fi off and on. If your Wi-Fi setting is dimmed, follow these steps.
Confirm that your Wi-Fi router and cable or DSL modem are connected to power, turned on, and connected to the Internet. If not, refer to your network administrator or Internet service provider (ISP) for assistance.
Restart your iOS device.
Tap Settings > Wi-Fi and locate the Wi-Fi network to which you're connected.
Tap and Forget this Network.
Try to connect to your desired Wi-Fi network.
Note: You may need to enter your Wi-Fi password again if your network requires one.
Turn your Wi-Fi router off and on2. If your ISP also provides cable or phone service, check with them before attempting this step to avoid interruption of service.
Update your device to the latest version of software.
Update your Wi-Fi router to the latest firmware2. For AirPort Base Stations, install updates using the AirPort Utility.

Ok, so sometimes apple's servers may crash, temporarily. Just check the following site: http://www.apple.com/uk/support/systemstatus/
and it will notify you of any crashes. The link above is for the UK. Change to adapt to your country if you are outside of the UK. If your problem isn't listed I am sure it will be resolved within 24 hours. If this problem persists best thing is to contact apple.
Hope this helped :)

Why won't my devices connect to the new WiFi airport?

Power-cycle both the router and your modem.

TS1367 I have a mac book pro, 2012 and an apple monitor but the monitor keeps going off. What is causing this? Why won't it stay connected?

Why won't my Apple monitor stay on with my mac book pro?

I know there were many more problems 5 yrs ago with 3rd party monitors and have been some issues in between also.
Apple does have what is needed to use multiple 30 inch displays and the 5770 is pretty mainstream and standard.
It is also about the only card being sold outside ebay and a couple places in case you want to take your chances with Nvidia 8800GT 1st gen model or ATI 4870.

Why won't my iPad connect to the wifi when my iPhone is right next to it, and my phone gets perfect wifi connection?

I am currently having a problem with my iPad 2. It won't connect to my home wifi as well as my iPhone 4s. I have them both sitting right next to me and my phone has perfect wifi connection while my ipad can't even find the wifi. I've been having this problem for a while now. I've resetted it numerous times, had it looked at at the Apple store, and much more to try to fix this problem. I don't know what to do. Thanks for your time.

Why won't my MacBook connect to my wireless internet at home?

I'll try to give as many details as I can:
I'm a freshman in highschool & have a MacBook from my school that I use for the year. It's just a regular MacBook, not an air or anything. In class the other day, my computer froze up completely, so I used the command-option-escape, or whatever, to force shut down my machine. When I booted it back up at school, it worked just fine & connected to the internet. But when I brought it home, it wouldn't connect to my home wireless internet. It has always hooked up in the past perfectly fine. It's not a problem with the connection, because my Dell laptop & iPod touch connect off my wireless just fine. It's just this device. It also doesn't connect at my church, just at my school it works. I'm using en ethernet cord right now, but I'm confined to about 3 feet from my router, so I have to sit in one room.
I tried restarting it, shutting it down, zapping the PRAM, etc. I even brought it into my school's Help Desk, & the lady tried several things that didn't work. We tried deleting the name from my keychain & history, but it just does the same thing. There's an exclamation point over the wi-fi bar, & it shows that I have a full connection. It just doesn't connect. I have a MacBook, but I'm not sure what iOS it is. I know it's 4-something, but I don't know exactly, sorry.
Can anyone help? THANK YOU SO MUCH if you can.

These are suggestions for connecting an iPad. Some are also applicable to your MB.

Additional things to try.
Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

Why can I no longer connect to our home Wi-Fi?

I love my tablet, but with the problems I have been having, I am thinking that it is time to buy a lap top! It started with my having to reboot my tablet to connect to our home Wi-Fi. I was thinking that maybe ti was just slow Time Warner internet. I went to visit my daughter in NYC and had no issues with connecting to their Wi-Fi at all. I took Amtrak home from NYC and couldn't connect to the Wi-Fi on board the train. I came home and now I can not connect to our Wi-Fi at all. I tried rebooting my tablet and still no connection. Anyone else have problems with their Wi-Fi? What should I do? We have only had the tablet for almost 6 months!

We have two phones and the tablet connected to our home wifi, we have Time Warner. I don't think that is much. It is working better now. I thought that the train being overloaded might be the reason why I couldn't connect. I had asked the conductor if there was an issue with it and he checked and said no. He was connected, as were others around me. Most were using their smart phones. Since I had never had a problem connecting before, I didn't think I'd have an issue on this trip. BUT, there were a lot more people on board. My scheduled train was cancelled, so there were more passengers, and cars, than the usual on board! It was annoying because I had to reschedule, AND be without a wifi connection! I can only hope that the next time I take the train, that I can connect to their wifi.....and that my scheduled train won't be cancelled!!!!

My iPhone 3G won't display or connect to my home wifi network

Hello!
I have an old iPhone 3G that my dad gave me a long time ago. It had some problems, but I figured that's just 'cause it's old. But now I really don't know. One of its biggest (and only) problems is that it refuses to connect to my home wifi network. In fact, when I go to Settings > WiFi, it won't even display my network (it did once, but failed to actually connect), or any network, actually. I found once that in Settings > General > About > Network (Not Available), it tells me "SIM not provisioned". I've heard that you don't need a SIM card at all to use wifi on an iPhone, so what's going on here (in case I didn't make it clear, I do have a SIM card in the phone, and this problem occurs whether it's in or not)? Do I need to activate my SIM card (and if so will it cost me anything)? Or is my iPhone just whack?
If I wasn't clear in my question, please ask for clarification in the comments.
Thanks!

We now have two older phones that will not recognize one of our networks.

If it's 2nd gen, are you using the USB cable that came with it, that has a mini-dock at the iPod end?
